Does anyone think this lack of quality form were stuck in at the moment has anything to do with Eric Black, he was assistant when Aston villa had the worst season in history in the premier league and now we're becoming the worst team in the league nobody is scared of playing us. We are loosing our good reputation of being a club that is hard to beat and plays attractive football
It's the only common denominator I can see.

Look at blacks cv, it's a damn site worse than just villa, relegated with Wigan, relegated with Blackburn, nearly took Rotherham down until sacked when Warnock saved them, won only a couple of games for Blackpool out of about 20, then him and Barnes took the reins at Celtic and were woeful.

Hi dsj, very good point and our present managers cv doesn't make great reading, he seems to stay 2 seasons and move on, I would love to have sit in on his interview.! Also I read that our new owner has put Austin, Long, Gabbiadini up for sale so presumably VVD deal has been done and Bertrand also to go so I think we are in for some interesting times. Hopefully Tadic and Redmond are on the list also Regards vs.

I really don't know how Black got the job. Surely Les looked at his cv, also the same with Pellegrino his Alaves side yes finished 8th but hardly scored and were defensive as he'll. He was sacked from Valencia for similar (to be fair a lot of quality sold) . So why did Les promise high pressing attacking football? They were never Mp's traits. Time is up for Les, he has to go along with Black, Mp, Ross Wilson and Dave Watson, there is an air of Reeds gang with this lot and it's taking us down, from Poch the managers have got progressively worse, the goalkeeping situation is horrendous, the lack of vision that every fan see's when we needed a ACM to score and create, the ego of Les who let's face it was shocking as a manager is using us as his own championship manager game, exactly where were heading, blowing is own self importance when we were at Wembley and 2 seasons ago when the media loved us and we were seen as the template for others, but now when things are going rotten he's hidden in his ego bubble to worried about media team putting out stupid little videos and the whole ' my way ' being played before games which is very apt coming from him, how about coming out along with our new invisible owner to explain to the fans the intentions and what's going on, sorry about the rant but I love saints but it's really starting to boil my blood.
